Residents of states that refuse to set up health insurance exchanges under Obamacare are set to be hit with higher premiums under new rules announced by the Health and Human Services Department.
Insurance companies will be charged 3.5 percent of any premiums they sell through the federal exchanges, the department announced Friday. And insurers are likely to pass that surcharge on to clients, leaading to higher premiums.
The only states to be affected are those that refuse to set up their own exchanges because of opposition to the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. They are almost certain to be those under Republican control. In those states, HHS will set up the exchanges.

Under the Constitution ONLY Congress has the power to levy taxes....not the executive branch, not the judiciary. Congress told us repeatedly this was a mandate,....NOT a Tax. How can Roberts levy a tax...ONE man in this country...levied a tax and we are all jumping through our assholes trying to figure out what happened. Where did Roberts get the aurtority to do this?

What about section 1555 of the PPACA?
You can forget about anything being done to get obama out of office, including as was demonstrated on November 6, 2012, voting.
But,after all is said and done, obama is not the problem that ails the United States. The problem is the bastards that continually return him to office. They, not him,will be the cause of the demise of the United States. He will do his part, but, it is the parasites and traitors that will spell the doom of this onec great nation.
And later on down the road the doctors who refuse to place themselves under obamacare will lose their liscense to practice medicine.
Or “asking” a company to violate the law and not send out
layoff notices in the required time-frame because said
notices would come out just before the election and make
him look bad, and to sweeten the deal, he promised to pay

That dirt.

Revenge? I am there as well. I would like to see some revenge enacted on these bastards and their families.
